Hurts so good!

Message posted by: John O.

Well not really, but it does feel good to finish my longest run in 10 months. Since I couldn't finish my 14 miler 2 weeks ago, todays 16 miler made the farthest I have ran since last April. Big difference when adding 5 more miles onto my crew's normal Saturday 11 mile run. I'm pleased that I was able to finally run 16 miles straight again without ever stopping.

I think I was motivated after reading almost all of Dean Karnazee's book,and how he says it is just putting one foot in front of the other even when it hurts. I'm really sore right now, and have to go do kenpo for my p90x program. Not sure if I can even lift my legs up high enough to justify what I will be doing as a kick…haha. I think I found my pace too for distance running right now. I avg. 7:47 today, and never got winded but the legs and glutes were screaming.

Have a great weekend!
